EU to flush your money down your toilet?

[Tim Streater]

But these UKIP voters won't get that. They'll get Ed Millibroon and Co if they vote UKIP.

[Gefreiter Krueger]

Yes, because the UK has so little rain....

[The Natural Philosopher]

they will get Ed Millibroon and Co if they dont vote UKIP

Or the equally pointless Camerdribble.

It is really a no brainer. Vote kip with a 20:1 shot of making a difference, don't vote UKIP and 100% chance that nothing changes.

Yes, Nokia were the other manufacturer slow in standardising on micro- and mini-USB.

But since Nokia are an absolute irrelevance these days...

[Adrian]

A two minute google finds it on...

...and nowhere else. Nothing linking it to any context or other information at all.

Smells lightly of haddock to me.

[harryagain]

I remember that incident from years ago, yes it is true.

Others seem to think so too.

[harryagain]

It's pretty self evident that if we have lots of immigrants they will overload our services/housing. Only half wits can't immediately see the truth of this. Lots of socialists in denial.

[harryagain]

Don't confuse price with functionality.

[harryagain]

Answer the question shit-fer brains. Government are elected to do popular things. If they don't they get unelected. That's why UKIP is doing so well. Are you so simple you can't see that?

[harryagain]

Best for the country in whose opinion? I think the collective mind of the population is far ahead of stupid politicians.

[harryagain]

We would be able to deport foreign criminals for a start. We would not have all these stupid regulations for another. We wouldn't have the expense of all this EU crap and basket case ex commie countries to support Not to mention them coming over here taking jobs, accommodation, education and public facilities.

[Tim Streater]

It is really a no brainer. Vote UKIP, get Ed Millibroon and *no* EU referendum. Vote Tory, get Cameron and an EU Referendum. It's the only option. Otherwise you guarantee that you /don't/ get a referendum.

[Tim Streater]

Already happened, but that's too hard for hayseeds like JJ to understand.

[Adrian]

I can't wait for the EU referendum. The reaction from people like TNP & Harry when they realise that they really were in a minority all along will be priceless. Just wait for the blame game to begin.

[Tim Streater]

Well it will clear the air one way or another. That's the point.

[The Natural Philosopher]

"Vote Tory, get Cameron and an EU Referendum"

I dont do faith Tim..

I voted cameron last time and no referendum. No repeal of fox huntung ban. No bonfire of the quangos.

All we got was a liberal democrat energy policy.

[Tim Streater]

There was no referendum because the Treaty had already been signed (by one G. Brown). The referendum was going to ask "should we sign this?", making any promise *not* to sign it a bit moot. Reneging on Treaties can be done, but would seriously harm your rep if done too often. From abroad, Mr J. Foreigner is not interested in the subtleties of who is running Britain, he just sees a sudden reversal of a recently entered-into agreement and wonders WTF is going on. Rather easier if you haven't signed the thing.

As for the rest, well the country is run by what is known as a "Coalition". That rather limits what can be achieved in government. I don't like coalitions - they are unnecessary because any political party is almost certainly *already* a coalition. And, by definition, whatever was promised before the election goes into the rubbish bin. You have to start from scratch and the resulting agreement, manifesto if you like, is born from negotiation between the parties. That of course is another reason to dislike coalitions, because the platform you are then forced to govern on is not something anyone had a chance to see, and use to decide how to vote, before the election took place. So the electorate is bound to feel deceived. But that's no reason to sulk and go off and vote for some loonies, or to accuse Cameron (or indeed Clegg, which some of his supporters are doing) of deceit. What you do is work for a majority government the next time.

Better get used to them ...

The less Governments can do, the better.
